Learn how to get an extra +2 bonus in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Contests by being the first to appeal. This guide covers the mechanics of appealing and its impact on your score.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    During a Contest battle, players can choose to Appeal instead of using a move.
  2. 2
    Appealing is a strategic choice that doesn't directly attack the opponent but can influence the judges' favor.
  3. 3
    If you are the first player to choose the Appeal option in a given turn, you will receive a bonus of +2 to your current score.
  4. 4
    This bonus is applied immediately after the Appeal action is performed.
  5. 5
    Subsequent Appeals in the same turn by other players will not grant this bonus.
Tips
  • Prioritize appealing early in a turn if you have a high score or want to build momentum.
  • Consider the remaining turns and the opponent's moves when deciding whether to appeal.
  • Appealing can be a good way to recover from a low score or to maintain a lead.
